This is why I was so stoked about my 8+. I thought it was something special and a new level of writing after many 7s.

19-year-old Brian can't believe that 39-year-old Brian is more excited about the Team Figure Skating finals at the Olympics than the Super Bowl.

This week over at Writing and Whatnot, I wrote about general meetings and how not to screw them up. One of the worst meetings Shawna and I ever had ended up getting us a job. So every general matters... writingandwhatnot.com/blog/general-meetings

I know the world is on fire and it's silly, but I got an 8 on @theblcklst.bsky.social this week and I'm pretty excited about it. I will embrace today's joy and get back to work with it. #WritingCommunity

One more time: If you're a musician or band, don't use AI for cover art or to write anything about your work. If you're a theatre company, don't use AI music or art for your posters/artwork or to have it write your programs. If you're a writer, don't use it for covers or character art.

Since I first traveled to Great River sixteen years ago, Minnesota has been one of my favorite states. It is home to some of the absolute greatest humans on the planet. They are kind, they are hardworking, they are the best humans. The Twin Cities are a delight.

American Theatre Companies Big and Small: PLEASE STOP using AI Generated images to promote your shows. I know times are tough but you're saying it's alright if AI steals from these artists. I know budgets are tight. There are other ways to promote your shows.

Grateful to the folks over on the Stunt List for showcasing this very silly stunt spec script I wrote. How do you make an Uno movie? I chose to make it about the people who love Uno, and it's a bit of a love letter to the Midwest. And there's lots of HIGH STAKES LIFE OR DEATH UNO.

An Uno playing card with a bullet hole through the O. The tagline says "Draw 4 Your Life" and it is on the Stunt List webpage.

We got a sunflower. We named her Maribel. It's beautiful and brings me joy daily. Maybe it will bring you some joy today. Stay strong and beautiful, like Maribel.

I finally got to "Night Watch" by Sir Terry Pratchett. It's honestly amazing timely "Night Watch" feels right now and how timeless the Discworld books feel in general. Vimes has been my guy from the start but this sealed him as one of my all-time favorite characters.

Happy #TransDayOfVisibility! What a good day to buy books and comics by trans creators, what do you think? I'll be sharing books/comics and links to buy them throughout the day, maybe links to shops as well. Feel free to share yours too!

oh, to live in a world where the not-a-problem of just-fineness is a major philosophical concern qwantz.com/index.php?co...

T-Rex: Sometimes bad things happen to good people! In religion, this is called "the problem of evil", and it boils down to the following:

T-Rex: "Hey, wait a sec, how come a chill god would allow us suffer?"

T-Rex: But sometimes, GOOD things happen to BAD people too! And this is SORTA like the problem of evil, only less intense: why would a chill god give THAT jabroni a nice thing? That jabroni sucks so bad; where are MY nice things??
Dromiceiomimus: We will call this, "the problem of jabronis getting away with it".
T-Rex: SO SHALL IT BE.

Utahraptor: But sometimes bad things happen to bad people, and good things to good people!
T-Rex: Yeah!

T-Rex: That seems fine, so we'll call it "the not-a-problem of just fineness" though, if we really interrogate it some, we're left wondering why bad things happen to ANYONE, or what the concept of "bad people" really means, and that just brings us back to wondering how come a chill God would do this?

T-Rex: Why should bad things happen AT ALL? In fact, why should things of ANY class happen? WHY HAVE WE HAPPENED, AND WHY DO I CONTINUE TO HAPPEN??
God: I 'UNNO
T-Rex: I 'unno either, dude! I honestly 'unno ANY of this!!

Ok here is the thing with action/praxis/protest/showing up: Sometimes you contribute by being a megaphone. Sometimes by being a wallet. Sometimes by being a physical body. Sometimes by being fuel or being relief. If you can’t be one thing at any given moment you can almost certainly be another.

If you are a straight, cis person and you feel that fucking knot in your stomach about what the administration is doing right now to trans people and trans children, you have to at the very fucking least say out loud in front of your friends and peers in real life "this is fucked up."
